words wont do justice. glorious setting on the beach. friendly and efficient service. the food is beyond comparison. freshly baked bread. the springbok was beyond reproach and my braai and pap and sous was like it says proper braai and i loved the krummelpap. peppermint crisp tart soos my ouma sin. and of course the blikbekers and plates is a great idea!!!!! well done!!!!!
Fantastic setting, friendly service, Good food but overpriced. Bread, pate and jam at R 55.00 is a bit much. My wife loved the prawns, I had the lamb shank which was average and a seriously small portion of veggies. But if you want a spot with a view you cannot do any better.
This is an absolute must when visiting J-Bay! A beach bar styled restaurant tucked away on a private beach. Casual, stick your toes in the sand and enjoy a variety of fire cooked seafood while looking out at the ocean! Service is great, restaurant has a bo-ho rustic look and the food portions are generous,well cooked and delicious! We had a brilliant evening and hope to return!
Was the best ribs ever. Other people also had the prawns and scallops and said it was very tasty. Loved the casualness of the place. The homemade bread and coffee at the end also delicious.
Best sea food in South Africa and service was 10/10 ask for davie what a little champion he is. Just remember to book at least 2 days in advance.
Really good food. Value for money. The service is excellent. Our waiter was super friendly and efficient. The ambience was fantastic. If you in Jeffery’s Bay, you need to eat here. Bookings are essential as you will wait. Davie was our waiter. Really good.
This is almost the same as De Vette Mossel in Mosselbay. You have to book especially over the holiday season as they are always packed. You will find very tasty seafood dishes and local wines.
Just wow. What a venue and what a setting. You can really not get any closer to the ocean unless you are in it. I love the casual vibe where you can sit with your feet in the sand and just relax. The service is incredible and our waiter was very knowledgeable and we never had to wait longer than 5 mins for anything we ordered. We opted for the shellfish platter for 2 and we should have invited more friends as the portions were fantastic and all the ingredients fresh. I most like how they serve everything in old tin cups and plates...reminds me a lot of my childhood. In the summer I can only imagine it must be a haven to visit and spend some well deserved down time at. A must visit if you are in the area as a landmark setting in Jay bay.
Ongelooflike lekker kos en atmosfeer!!! Die spyskaart bied n lekker verskeidenheid en hulle is glad nie skaam met hulle porsies nie, dit is wel aan die duur kant, maar hay- met so n view, who cares?
Great food and cool venue, had a meal with a friend really enjoyed it. Thank you......:)/):):(:(:;;:)))):):):)/(:(:(:(:(:(:(;::((;:(((::;;(::):):)
An absolutely fantastic experience.
We were met by the friendliest waiter at the door who went out of his way to make us feel special.
This place is next level with the wakes gently breaking a few metres from our table. I had crayfish for the first time in my life and I wasn't disappointed.
If you are ever in J-Bay, I can highly recommend Die Walskipper 👌
What a wonderful experience and host Michelle and Ferdi was like a jack out of a box. Great helping with the menu and just an awesome man serving us. A Must on your List. Thanks with Lindsay Weyer
Not many places where you can eat with your bare feet in beach sand. Might not be everyone’s thing - but I liked it.
When we were there it was busy but we still got good service. I would recommend the seafood. Duh.
Wonderful experience! Will recommend Walskipper to anybody. Had a wonderful birthday celebration for my 14year old. Very friendly waitress with great advice and conversation.

I first heard of this restaurant in 2014 when the Late Chef Lentswe Bhengu visited the restaurant on Africa on a Plate.
From my home in America, I pinned this restaurant and said "one day I will get there as everything about his experience sold me."
Fast forwarding to my one day- This place did not disappoint, from our host Henrik to the amazing platter of fresh food, to the scenery, to the wine pairing- it was perfection.
The food was served paella style: calamari, squid heads and prawns were cooked to a golden perfection. The garlic mussels were unfairly delicious, tender, and juicy...and the creamy sauce added a rich depth of flavor to the rice beneath it.
And the crayfish- oh it was so rich and buttery...a must for the lobster lovers.
The linefish was also delicious, but it lost its way amongst the other delicious things on the platter.
This was a perfect 10! I'm grateful to the late Chef Lentswe Bhengu for introducing this wonderful place to me. And the great people behind the brand🥂

The most beautiful view! Lekker vibe and the food was amazing!
Roosterkoek and then Hake and Calamari with rice. Will definitely be back asap!
WOW! The food is delicious, the atmosphere amazing, the view breathtaking and the service excellent thank you to Mariesa, our waitress, who gave us just that little bit extra customer service.
It's definitely a must visit!
Amazing restaurant right on the beach. Great atmosphere, amazing food and a stunning view.
Very good environment, the restaurant is next to the beach and has a sandy floor so it feels like you’re dining on the beach.
The restaurant primarily serves seafood but also has some meat dishes. The fish and the meat are barbecued over hot coals to give an incredible flavour and texture.
They also have a wide selection of alcoholic beverages, wines and coffees. Service is very good and the quality of seafood is top notch.
Definitely recommend.

We had a lovely meal and experience at this restaurant. It was recommended by a friend and we decided to go to J-Bay for the beach and the food later.
The restaurant is situated by a section of the beach which is very nice for the kids to play nearby. The restaurant has an open-feel vibe with an outdoor grass section and fireplaces all around the restaurant for the indoors. Their floor is covered by sand so you can put your feet in the sand while you dine.
We had very fresh oysters to start with and a shellfish platter for two to share. The platter has everything - crayfish, calamari, crab, langoustines and scallops. It was so fresh that you could taste the quality of the seafood. The meats on the crayfish were cooked perfectly and so soft to chew. One of the best seafood I have ever eaten. This is definitely a proper seafood restaurant that serves high quality seafood. They also serve meat dishes but since you are going to a beach, you have to try their seafood.
We had a lovely server, his service was attentive and efficient. We had seafood only so the prices were slightly on the high side but it was so good that it was very worth it!!!
